Hi from N. Alabama

Greetings! I’ve taken over the gardening duties for my family, growing a variety of hybrid and heirloom tomatoes this year. I have 12 plants, this patch here has historically produced some extraordinary tomatoes. 2025 has been a little bit difficult, it’s been wet, and I’m not sure if we have overused our tomato patch or not since tomatoes have been grown there for the last decade. Diseases are starting to sit in I think. I’ll check back on other threads here. Nice to be here.

@ctfrench Yes, as @Whwoz mentioned, pictures as well as a more detailed description would help in finding a solution, especially from those who live around your area. Welcome to the forum and feel free to ask for help with anything.

I’m going to post in the diseases pest, etc. forum, but I can also post here if you think I should. I’m just trying to keep it on topic. OK here I go.

Welcome from NE Pa where lately there has been a lot of rain. Hope you find a solution to your problem. Also remember tomatoes are heavy feeders so be sure you have amended your soil.
